I'm famous again!!!

I've just been informed by a friendly visitor Josje that my Aubrey-Maturin miniatures are featured on her blog, Josje's Poppenhuis!!!  Her blog is so beautiful and full of such wonderful pictures that I feel humbled to be mentioned there so kindly! 

Dank u zeer, Josje!



PS - I love the word Poppenhuis.

Last night I dreamed about dollhouses, which is rather unusual.  I dreamed I was trying to finish the construction of an attic room with impossible angles and mitering and bits of molding that wouldn't quite fit, and pieces that kept falling off before the glue was dry, and argh!  It was so realistic.

You're becoming an international celebrity of the miniature world.

I'm almost through the first book, and I thought of your little rooms as I was reading, "In his beautiful little cabin Jack sat reading Steel's Navy List and feeling low...because he was so aware of his feelings aboard."

Usually I have such dreams when I'm so immersed in something, it's as if it just keeps going on in my head, even when the daily events of it are done.

Oh, hooray! And well-deserved! I recall the set of pics that began with that one--just beautiful.

Hi there - I've been watching your Master & Commander miniature project for a while and now, [livejournal.com profile] cionaudha has sort of introduced us at her journal... So I hope you don't mind me friending you. Please don't feel obligated to friend back but if you are hiding any mini project posts behind f-lock, I's sure like to see them. ;-)

Your M&C project is just stunning - well done! And some of the accessories you've found... :::THUD:::

Graag gedaan!

Thank you ! Your miniatures are delightful, more people should enjoy them. It was Elsbeth, a fellow miniaturist, who told me about your site. She doesn't have a website so I featured your miniatures on my blog.

It is a lovely word 'Poppenhuis', and a little alliteration can't be bad: Poppy's Poppenhuis, or Poppenhuis Poppy if one prefers.

I wonder what Freud would have to say about that dream, some deeply rooted anxiety over something in your life not going the way you want it to...

Josje.
